Local picture

What moves through Newport News.

Naval shipbuilding means documented crating built to military packaging standards.

Newport News sits in Newport News City, served by I-64, US-17 and US-60. The local freight base is shipbuilding, defence, port freight, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

Newport News is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 465 miles away. That works for full trailer loads and program volume; for a few hundred units, a local yard will beat us and we will say so.

Questions

Pallets in Newport News.

Can you deliver pallets to Newport News?

Served on scheduled contract carriers rather than our own trailers. Economic for full trailer loads and program volume; less so for small orders. Newport News is about 465 road miles from our yard, about 7 hours 15 minutes.

Do you collect used pallets from Newport News?

Collection at this distance only works on volume — a full trailer of sorted cores, or a program arrangement. For smaller quantities a regional recycler is the right call. See sell your pallets.

What do pallets cost in Newport News?

Recycled 48×40 GMA has run roughly $7.50 to $12.00 for Grade A and $5.00 to $8.50 for Grade B in our home market, before freight. Delivered pricing to Newport News depends on the distance above and the order size, which is why we quote delivered rather than FOB.

What is the local industry mix?

Shipbuilding, Defence, Port freight. That mix is what decides the specification — see the table above, and industries for the full detail on each sector.
